How and when to watch the 2024 US Open tennis tournament

The 2024 US Open will be played from August 26, 2024 through September 8, 2024. Matches will air on ABC and ESPN, and stream on Sling TV and the platforms featured below.  

How and when to watch the 2024 US Open without cable

While many cable packages include ABC and ESPN it’s easy to watch the US Open if ESPN and ABC aren’t included in your cable TV subscription, or if you don’t have cable at all. Your best options for watching are below. (Streaming options will require an internet provider.)

Sling TV: The most cost-effective way to stream the US Open and sports this fall

If you don’t have cable TV that includes ABC and ESPN, one of the most cost-effective ways to stream the US Open and sports this fall is through a subscription to Sling TV. We suggest leveling up your coverage to the Orange + Blue with Sports Extra tier to get access to all US Open matches, plus network-aired NFL and college football games (minus those airing on CBS). 

The Orange + Blue plan regularly costs $60 per month, but the streamer currently offers a $25 off promotion for your first month, so you’ll pay just $35. The Orange + Blue with Sports Extra plan is $50 for your first month and $75 per month after. (Note that your introductory offer may differ.) The Sports Extra add-on features 18 channels, including Tennis Channel, NFL Redzone, ESPNU, SEC Network, Big 10 Network and ACC Network, making it ideal for pro and college football fans.

The streamer is also currently offering big savings on four months of the Orange + Blue tier plus the Sports Extra plan when you prepay for the Sling TV Season Pass. The plan costs $219, reduced from $300.

Note: Because Sling TV does not carry CBS, Sling subscribers will want to add Paramount+ to their bundle. (Paramount+ and CBS Essentials are both subsidiaries of Paramount Global.)

Top features of Sling TV Orange + Blue plan:

• Sling TV is our top choice for streaming major sporting events like NASCAR.
• There are 52 channels to watch in total, including local ESPN, NBC, Fox and ABC affiliates (where available).
